Completely redesigned, the third-generation Nano adds video playback and redefines the portable media player.

Manufacturer’s Description

It's the small iPod with one very big idea: video. The world's most popular music player now lets you enjoy movies, TV shows, and more on a two-inch display that's 65 percent brighter than before. Browse through your music collection by flipping through album art. Select an album to turn it over and see the track list. With an anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel enclosure and a choice of five colors, iPod nano is dressed to impress.
